Ahoy database folk! Time for another meetup and more container chit chat. Yeah yeah, you, like me, have heard that you shouldn’t run databases in containers. Well without throwing all caution to the wind, I’m hoping to show you guys some container workflows with Postgres that I’ve been using lately. We’ll talk a bit about why you haven’t been running databases in containers, then walk through some development work flows with Postgres, and lastly look at options for deploying and running persistent databases in containers.
